Over the Old World on Trtcycles.

Harold E. Lewis and his wife of Phil
adelphia, have recently returned from
Europe after a four months tour on tri-
cycles. They left New York May %
for Liverpool. They went by rail from
the latter city to Coventry, where they
purchased a tandem machine aud began
their tricycle. tour. They went up by
easy stages to London, visiting by the
way Kenilworth, Warwick, Stafford
on-Avon, Oxford, Windsor and
Hampton Court. They spent ten
days in London, making nearly all their
journeys from place to place in the city
on their tricycle.. They then visited
Winchester, Southampton and the Isle
of Wight, and, crossing to Portsmouth,
went along the coast of Chichester
Brighton and New Haven, where they
took steamer for Dieppe, end ths9ce
went by way of Rouen to Paris. eahey
spent 10 days in the FrenchS eeapital,
and thea went on to Geneva, In
teriaken and Lucernc. Then they
went over to old st. Gothard
Pass, and, by way of Lake Maggiore
and Lake Como, down to Milan. They
came back along the right side of Como
and over the spluegen Pass into Swift
zerland again. Next they went for the
usual run down the Rhine, taking in
strasbourg, Baden Baden, Heidelberg,
Mayence, Coblentz, Cologne and all the
rest of them. From Cologne they
wheeled on into Holland, pushing far
into the North, where few tourists go.
They crossed the Zuyder Zee-in a boat,
of course-and ratified down the PENN
sula to Amsterdam.
The maximum run for any one day was
made on the trip from Paris to Geneva;
it was sixty-three miles. The whole
journey from Paris to Geneva consumed
seven days. The cost of the journey,
aside from the steamship charge, aver
aged So. so a day for both.
One of the most interesting circum-
stances in connection with the whole
story, Mr.. Lewis thinks, is that only
some three years ago his wife was a con-
irmed invalid and scarcely permitted to
walk at all and was altogether forbidden
to walk upstairs. Yet IN a part of their
return trip through the Bernese ober-
land they rode up an ascent that
amounted to 8, 800 feet in eight miles.

He WGs Calm.

A youngish man, wearing good
clothes and a plug hat, rushed up the
steps of a Griswold street bank yester-
day, hurried along to the window of the
cashier, and elbowing two or three peo-
pie aside, he said to the man behind the
window:
"Can you give me five tens for this
iftya I'm in 9 great hurry to catch the
train"
The cashier calmly received the bill,
gave it one brief glance and then showed
it under the stamp and returned it. It
WAS stamped with q big red ''countep
felt
60 youln growled the young
man with the good clothes as he hurried
out.
Ratsl' replied the cashier, but he
was calm, very calm.--[Detroit Free

Companions.
When / setsail on Life's young voyage,
Twas upon a stormy sea;

When ! set sail on Lifeis young voyage,
Twas upon a stormy sea;
But to cheer me night and day,
Through the perils of the way,
With me went companions three
Three companions kind and faithful,
True as friend and dear as bride;
Needless of the stormy weather,
Hand in hand they came together,
Ever smiling at my side.
One was Health, my lusty comrade,
Cherry-cheeked and stout of limb;
Though my board was scant of cheer,
And my drink but water clear,
/ was thankful, blessed with him.
One was mild-eyed Peacs of Spirit,
Who, though storms the welkin swept,
Waking gave me calm reliance.
And though tempests howled defiance,
Smooth'd my pillow when | slept.
One was Hope, my dearest comrade,
Never absent from my breast,
Brightest in the darkest days,
Kindest in the toughest ways,
Bearer far than all the rest.
And though neither Wealth o Station
Journeyed with me DER the sea,
Stout of heart, all danger scorning,
Naught cared | in Life's young morning
For their lordly company.
But, alas! ere night has darkened,
Ihave lost companions twain;
And the third, with fearful eyes,
Worn and wasted often flies,
But a soft returns again.
And instead of those departed,
Spectres twain around me fit;
Pointing each with shadowy finger,
Nightly at my couch they linger.
Daily at my board they sit.
Oh, that I SO blindly followed
In the hot pursuit of Wealth!
Though I've gained the prize of gold,
Eyes are dim and blood is cold
have lost nay comrade Health.
Woe is me that Fame allured me-
She 20 false, and $50 blind!
Sweet her smiles, but in the chase
l have lost the happy face
OF my comrade Peace of Mind!
Last of all my dear companions,
Hope, sweet Hope! befriend me yet
Do not from my side depart,
Do not leave my lonely heart
All to darkness and regret.
Short and sad is 20 my voyage
Der a gloom-encompassed sea,
But not cherries altogether,
Whatsoe'er the wind and weather,
Will it seem, if blessed with thee.

AS o profession the practice of medi-
cine seems to be pretty lucrative, at least
in large cities. The late Miss Wolf used
to pay $40, 900 a year to her medical at
tendant. The late Mrs. A. T. Stewart
paid an average Of $50, 000 to three
physicians. Mrs. c. Vanderbilt pays
her doctor 80, 900 a year and Mrs. viii
liam Astor pays SIC, 900. Mrs. Ellis, an
American lady, physician to the Queen
Of Cerea, receives $15, 900 a year. At a
meeting of the New York County Medi-
cal Society two white-haired physicians
with whom q reporter talked agreed in
saying that at least se-half the practlc-
ing physicians Of New York received
incomes of $4,000 a year and upward.

The potato bug made two simultaneou

The potato bug made two simultaneous
appearances in Germany this year, one
in Saxony and one in Hanover. Ths
German Government at once had men at
work, who carefully picked all the bugs
and larve off the plants. The stems of
the vines were then cut off and placed
ID baskets lined with sacking, which
were thoroughly soaked in benzine oil
and buried deep in the ground. After
this tho land was pIowed IL or IA inches
deep and well narrowed, and the surface
picked over for any insects that might
DO on il. Finally the land was sat
urated with benzine oil. In one case
eight acres and in the other three
quarters of on acre had to be treated in
this way.

SCIENTIFIC SCRAPS.

The transparency of molten iron, no.
ticed during a casting of several tons,
has been recorded by Mr.. w. Ramsey.
1t had a yellow tinge.
A petroleum exhibition is soon to be
held in st. Petersburg, in connection
with which the Russian minister of war
offers a prize of 500 roublcs for a COM
pact and practical battery for electric
lighting with ~incandcscent lamps.
If towns were laid out with the streets
in the diagonal dire c%tions, northeast and
southwest, northwest and southeast, and
the sun shining into all the rooms some
time during every day in the year, the
effect would be cheering and salutary.
Disasters to cyesight are evidently
more common than is generally sup
posed, judging from the statement
that more than 1000, 900 glass eyes
are made annually in Germany and
Switzerland. An artificial eye seldom
lasts moro than five years, the secre-
tom of the glands turning it cloudy.
The Swedish count, M. Bjornstjerna,
suggested more than forty years ago, in
a book on "The Theogony of the Hin
doos," that, as both poles must have
been cooled to a suitable temperature at
the same time, the earth might have
been peopled from the north pole with
its white races, and from the south pole
with its colored races.
Obser vations made at the late South
Kensington Aquarium upon the effect of
temperature Oh fish, show that the dog
fish, m%ullet, conger, skate, founder,
bass, cod, trout, catfish, pike, and carp
are extremely hardy, and can exist in a
temperature ranging from 81 deg. to II
deg. The gurnard, wrasse, bull-head,
sole, Dream, cray-fish, blennie, perch,
dace, tench, minnow, club, roach. and
gudgeon are sensitive to extremes of
temperature.
Perhaps the statement may be of in
terest that the little screcch-owl is get
ting much more common in the vicin-
ity of cities in which the English
sparrow has become numerous, and
that the imported birds will find in
this owl as bold an enemy as the spar
row-hawk is to them in Europe, and
even more dangerous, since its attacks
are made toward dusk, at a time when
the sparrow has retired for the night,
and is not so wide awake for ways
and means to escape.
Pertinently to an expression of doubt
by Mr.. David A. Wells in one of his
articles on Mexico, as to the Aztecs hav-
ing knowledge or making use of metal
tools, Mr.. W. W. Blake, in the "Ameri
can Antiquarian" mentions as being on
exhibition in the Archaeological Rooms
of the National Museum of Mexico,
idols, beads, and engraved clasps of
of gold; lip-ornaments and other articles
OF silver; numerous tools, weapons, and
ornaments Of copper; and 'chopping
knives" of copper, which are supposed
to have been used as money.

A perfecting press, such as most lead
Ing newspapers are printed on, is an ex-
pensfse and intricate piece of machinery.
The cost runs up among the thousands
Of dollars and it consists of many deli
cate parts nicely adjusted. At the same
time it exerts a tremendous mechanical
force when 10 operation, and is not q
thing TO be trified with. Imagine the
sensations of d leading New York pub
Usher one day recently, when he saw an
iron wrench 90 crashing through his
press, following the path designed for a
single thickness Of paper. It was the
fault ola careless pressman, who had
started the machine without demoving
the wrench, which he had been using.

these presses, cylinders were broken,

In 1878 capital punishment, which had
been abolished il Iowa, was re-estab-
lished, and it was provided that the
jury should decide in murder cases
whether or not the death penalty should
be paid, but that no convicted person
should be executed until at least one
years confinement in the penitentiary.
"A wife murderer who was recently CON
yicted is the first person condemned to
death in the state under the new law.
